Must have been wonderful to hear the wolves howling Saz, I would have loved to hear that, I love wolves and I think it's horrible that the norwegians are hunting them just because they ate a few of their sheep, it's the norwegians who placed their damn sheepfarms in the middle of the wolves natural habitat anyway.
I hadn't heard about that, Neb. I agree, that is beastly (no pun intended). Here in Texas it's the coyotes the ranchers hunt. I hear that they offer $5 a head for coyotes in the surrounding area, so you get all these hunters out shooting a creature who has lived here for thousands of years. Ridiculous. Not to mention the fact that the coyotes, who have a great deal of natural guile and intelligence, have now moved into Denton where they run through the streets at night, upending garbage, preying on pets, and making a general nuisance of themselves. One can hardly blame them, though. It is a bit unnerving, though, to be walking across the university campus at night and see a rather large pack of coyotes running along the sidewalk in front of the Music building! Best to keep one's distance, I'd imagine...Nature in the raw is seldom mild.

Cheers,
